I absolutely love this movie. One of my favorite science fiction films of the last 25 years.

I mean I am sure there is some nuance going on that is over my head I can't explain but the basic concept and plot is pretty straight up. Obviously a dystopian future and the machines they are making for energy opened up a whole in the space time continuum. So the Rock and one of the Sean Willam Scott characters are from another time or universe. It is definitely satire on some sort of government politics and what not. I don't think any of that stuff really matters for me though. I love the style and the insanity of it all. Great look and soundtrack too. They made prequel graphic novel as well that I own.

I actually saw it at the theater with a friend the weekend it came out. We both loved it even though we maybe didn't fully grasp it all. I hate that it basically ended Kelly's career as I would love to see more from him. He did The Box which was ok but not really enough to be a full blown movie as opposed to the TV episode it originally was.
